Based on the our different conversations here is what we can and will do in practice during the OpenVillage Academy program in Sidi Kaouki. (For the wiki covering all practical information about the House, incl. location and travel guidelines, see the House manual.)
This is a wiki, so please edit it and add to it where you see a need. Initial writeup by @hazem.

2. Space arrangement
2.1. Sleeping arrangement
-
The 1st Floor contains 3 rooms, each can fit 2 person. a big living room can act as a good coworking space, shower , toilet and a kitchen. Plus a Big Terrace.
-
The ground floor has 3 separate studio apartments with a bathroom each, and we can use two of these. Each can hold around 3-4 persons.
-
A big terrace, nice roof with ocean view, swimming pool, a garden, and a non-functioning hamam (it needs some work to be fixed).
-
The normal arrangement is 12 person where the women (6) can use the studios and men (6) can use the 1st floor. (This leaves 3 more spots to be filled sometimes.)
2.2. Working arrangement
The house could be adapted for several uses depending on the people inside. We have several options to transform the space to working spaces.
-
The big main living room. This is considered the main coworking space. It is located in the 1st floor so for it is preferred for the ladies to use the studios downstairs for more privacy.
-
The big terrace. Could be used as a semi outdoor working space. The space is easy to adapt as long as the weather is fine, just bring the chairs and table and you have a nice small space for a team. It is in the shade so you can work with laptops during the day with the pool and garden view.
-
The shaded outdoor space. It is located behind the southern facade of the house, quite nice space for a working space or a workshop.
-
The space by the pool. The space could be used as a coworking space; There is a shady place for a big table by the solar panels.
-
The roof. When it is not windy, and still needs more shading to fit a space enough for a small group.
3. Organization and timeline
We can use Dynalist and wikis here on edgeryders.eu for organizing the House and the projects happening in it, as follows:
-
This very document here is the main wiki for the House. It will list the main / strategic tasks for every month and we can and discuss them here in the comments section.
-
Here is the dynalist for all tasks (House and projects). It contains sub-lists for projects, for example the coffee sorter dynalist.
3.1. Plan for January
For January 2018, out main tasks are the following:
-
During the first week (5-12 Jan) we need to prepare the house to fit our needs, meaning getting an internet connection, preparing the sleeping areas to be gender separated, and preparing the working area.
-
Getting to know the local community and find a carpenter who is willing to join the project or who is willing to allow us to rent/use his workshop and tools.
-
Then start working on the following projects (starting date 15th January): coffee sorter project, surf boards, storytelling / documentation.
-
Preparing to launch the Mesh network project by gathering the interested people from the local community and finalize the planning done in Riot including securing the equipment needed.
3.2. January Summary
To get a more in-depth summary please check the January summary post
-
The spaces, Internet are ready and waiting for people
-
no Carpenter but we got in touch with someone who has a CNC in Essaouira which we can rent. we asked for a 3d printer to be borrowed/rented from Casablanca but still no replay about this.
-
Some young people from the local community are happy to join our up coming activities regarding furniture and any other educational activity ( as sometimes it is fun to do something new especially here there is not much activities around ) Besides we can do something with the nearby school, either with kids, or a play ground wit bitcut or even connect it with the Internet.
-
No projects started yet, all are postponed to start in February due to flight arrangement and or visa processes.
-
the mesh network project took another turn to be made as an intensive 3 days workshop in the 1st week of Feb ( check @gregoiremarty post )
3.3. February plan
-
The participants are arriving and we can start working on the projects, each project can coordinate internally using the dynlist and or other means of communication and report the documentation on the platform.
-
Start our experience with the peer to peer curriculum, cooking, cleaning, sports, games, movies…etc and have fun.
4. Peer Learning Curriculum
Every academy has a curriculum, and so do we Our is different though, as it’s all about sharing skills and knowledge we enjoy. Also, these are side activities beyond the typical project work, which is organized internally inside each project (but of course others are invited to join quite often).
So, edit this and add either (1) what you would teach if there’s an interest or (2) what you would like to learn if there’s a teacher.
Workshop proposals with a teacher:
-
Bicycle repair and maintenance. By @matthias. All the basics using bicycles from around for hands-on “case studies”. You should be able to maintain your bicycle all by yourself afterwards, including brake and derailleur configuration, fixing a wobbly rim with a spoke key etc… Don’t expect anything fancy though, as we only have basic bicycles and basic tools so far. Two sessions around 2 hours each.
Interested to participate: @hazem [add your username here] @alberto -
Building a mobile broadband router. By @matthias and [your-name-here?]. We will build a mobile broadband router to provide a backup Internet connection for the House. For that, we will use open source hardware and software as much as possible: a Raspberry Pi 3, Linux, a mobile broadband modem, and a self-made weatherproof enclosure and raised mount. One session of 4-6 hours, or two sessions of 2-3 hours each.
Interested to participate: @alex_levene @hazem @matteo_uguzzoni [add your username here] @alberto -
Linux installation party. By @matthias and [your-name-here?]. You’ll install and configure Lubuntu Linux on your notebook computer, but you can keep Windows as well. Includes introductions to the programs you need to replace typical Windows software: LibreOffice, Inkscape, GIMP etc… 3 sessions of around 2 hours each.
Interested to participate: @hazem [add your username here] @alberto -
Working with photo spheres. By @matthias. A nice new feature with most recent smartphones, but it takes a bit of time to master it. This workshop shows ways to view the photo spheres on your own computer and online independent of Google software or services. We’ll also learn how to fix issues in the photo spheres with image processing software, and a hack that allows to capture a photosphere as normally with the Android camera app, but that processing the photos with open source software into a result with more than twice the resolution produced by Android. We’ll all take some photo spheres and work with these, of course.
Interested to participate: @HadeerGhareeb [add your username here] -
Alternative first aid without a kit. By @HadeerGhareeb. It will be over a session for an hour.
Interested to participate: @matthias @hazem @matteo_uguzzoni [add your username here]- 10 min: Introduction and safety.
- 20 min: Fixing a bone (arm / leg), theoretical and practical (ex. using tree branch, magazines / newspapers, jacket, belt, …).
- 20 min: Stop a bleeding / handle a burn, theoretical and practical (using ex. T-shirt, plastic rolls,
…). - 10 min: Handling mild dehydration and heatstroke (ex. drinking 7up or Spirite to correct the electrolyte imbalance).
Workshop proposals without a teacher (so far):
- 3D scanning with a camera. We would experiment, learn and practice to create 360° scans of objects using a smartphone photos, and sharing them as textured 3D objects online. We will use open source software as much as possible. Would be useful to document and share Bitcut results.
5. Fun Activities
If you have an idea of a fun or crazy activity that you want to make and need company
-
Hiking to Essaouira
It was mentioned (by a local person) that you can walk by the beach to from Kaouki to Essaouira. There are no barriers on the road. Would take around 5 - 6 hours; so if you are interested oin a long walk by the beach add your name and lets find a time to do so
